BALTIJCOas.lK;. POUTZ'S Horse and Cattle Powders at ft.73 per doz, at ENNISS Drug Store. Letter from Kew Orleans. New Orleans, Nov. 24, 1884. Now that the country is safe, with Cleveland. Hendricks. Scales and re form at the helm, the good ship of State will be kept in her true course, as onward we go on the journey of prosperity. With this feeling of per fect security, so far as the general good of the United and State govern ments are concerned, I venture to change the subject which has so long been all absorbing, and ask the read ers of the Watchman to take into consideration a. very few things I have to say in regard to the greatest expo sition the world has ever seen. North Carolina has just acquitted herself no bly iti her State Exposition, and her people naturally have some interest in expositiot s generally. The scheme here in the Crescent City is of audi colossal proportions that its real mag nitude does not dawn on one's com prehension until about two days' hard walking has brought his wearied bones to the starting point again. The main exposition building cov ers, as your readers know, 33 acres. Nothing short of a personal exam ina tion will give an adequate idea of its magnificent proportions. The pictures lend only, a faint conception. This vast structure will be filled with for eign exhibits, machinery and industri al implements. The space was so rapidly taken up that the manage ment soon discovered that they would fall far short in accommodating those who wished to make displays. This fact gave rise to the necessity for erec ting another large exposition hall. The second building is known as the Government and State's building, and in it Uncle Sam, the States and Ter ritories will make their displays. It is here that North Carolina will dis play to the world fourteen car-loads of her choicest productions. The ex perteiire gained at Atlanta, Boston, and the N. C. State Exposition will all be concentrated in the endeavor to be TI rttM i iimnir t in N -itiu' tnt t wn. tinue with the list of buildings, the ! : . it i iie.i in i in jmm in nee i xioriiviiiiuiiii Hall ; saitl to be the largest of its class ever erected. I have only seen it in i the distance. Then we have the Art Gallery and the machinery extension. These, together with some smaller buildings, and seven immense stables j for racing stock and cattle (capable of j housing in separate stalls 1,000 ori 12,000 head), wrll aggregate a grand total .of between 50 and 60 acres tin-j derJoof. This is considerable ground j to cover, and it will require a great deal to (ill such an amount of space. There need be no fear on this score since their are hundreds of car-loads of freight here now and every few hours adds to the number. The N. C. I cars arrived last Thursday, and we i begin the arduous Work of arranging our exhibit at once. Now let us take a little look at the town. It is needless to picture what I expecteil to see, and it will te "bless ed" hard to picture what I did see. New Orleans is something of a French town, in that tiiey di-regard the keep ing holy the Sabbath day in the French quarter, which part of town is said to have quite a Parisian air about it. Never having seen Paris I am content to accept the statement. There is to me an occasional reminder of a Span ish, or Mexican-Spanish town. This is particularly noticeable in the won derfully preserved tumble-down, one story shanties scattered in various prominent quarters of the place. If this feature is not attributable to the Mexican-Spanish inhabitants, steps should be taken to enlighten stran gers and so avoid mistakes. There i still another distinguishing trait about the character ot New Orleans. It has the reputation of being a Creole town. Let that pass for what it is worth, but taken altogether, it is "such" a town! 1 have never seen anything like it. First impressions are t nged with dis appointment, but the place grows on one as the surroundings become more familiar. It is probably the most ex pensive towu to live in this side of the great West. This may be accounted for when we remember that it is a six nionhs' town. That is to say, thai there are really only six or seven mouths of the year when there is any business done. Duriug the . summer the place is deserted. The large bus iness houses only leave a chief clerk or book-keeper and an oltiee boy in charge, while the other clerks are dis charged and the bosses with families hie away to cooler climes. So is it with every ckw that can afford to change. The result is that when the bu.-y season conies there is not only a return of citizens but an influx of health and pleasure seekers from the colder -sections of America. The cli mate here ul thU season is delightful, the attuosphere isoft and agreeable, and is frequently wafted to and fro by gentle breezes, ladcucd with the per fume of flowers. I will add just here that there are many beautiful lawns to be seen studded with orange trees, which are just now at their best the goldeu fruit hangs in tempting prolu siou. This reminds me that some things are cheap fruit foristance tliougli even this luxury hnj its draw backs. There is nojinneyh circula tion here of less tlenomin:$ioii than five cents. As a con.quencyou must buy five cenls worth or abiin. For that amount you can buy adozen bi nanas or a half dozen oranges, some times more. The result is that you inusit either convert younelf into a second-class fruit store, or throw away as much fruit as youconhl buy in North Carolina for a. hlf dollar. If I thought my advice wuld have any influence with the fruitvenders I would suggest the. propriety of using currency of smaller denomination. However, as they liavebeel conduct ing the fruit business with! apparent success for years before myjarrival, I will gracefully withdraw tc advice, remembering at the same time that advice is cheaper all over theeountry than fruit iff here. 1 had intended to relate my expe rience at the French market, but my letter is already nearly as lung as Blaine's face (since Nov. 4), so I shall let it rest lor a while. T. K. B. The Electoral College. The Machinery by Which the Presi dent and Vice-President are Elected. News and Observer. His Excellency the Governor, be ing thereto required by the Code, has issued his proclamation announcing the names of the Presidential electors chosen in this State, and warning them to meet in Raleigh on Tuesday, the second day of December, for the pur pose of organizing and receiving tlieir commissions. This is by virtue of the act of the Assembly, under which if any elector fails to attend on that day, the others will elect some other per son to fill his place. The Revised Statutes of the United States require that the electors shall cast their votes on the first Wednes day of December (the 31), but the Statc law l,rw,e9,r 1,1,8 P" rv meeting. I he Governor fti relimina- ruishes them with three lists of the electors, and the law further requires the elec tors to make and sign three certificates of the votes cast by them for Presi dent ami Vice-President, annexing thereto the certified list of electors furnished by the 'Governor. One of tde certificates of t ite ballots Ptiall oc scut to tue l'resiuent or tne United States Senate by a special nice scnger, another to the same officer through the mail, and the third shall be deposited with the judge of the dis trict where the electors meet. In case one of these certificates does not reach the President of the Senate by the 1st Wednesday in January, then that offi cial it required to dispatch a special messenger to the district judge and bring that copy to Washington. For want of a better naiie the 38 separate electoral bodies, c:mi veued in their respective States'; are renomina ted the "Electoral College." These bodies have no connection with eaeh other except that in the eye of the law they are port ions of the same ma chinery simultaneously used to electa President and Vicc-Presidc.it. It is said that the Electoral College meets on December 3d ; but instead of meet ing in one assembly, the thirty-eight separate portions of the College meet on that day in the respective capitals of the States, and there ami then si multaneously discharge their impor tant function. A meeting on any other day would invalidate the proceeding so far as the vote of any particular State is concerned. The electors are at liberty, so far as the statute goes, to vote for any citizen, and they are not required to vote for the particular nom inee whose election they advocated on the hustings. This is regarded by some as a defect in the law; but as no elec tor has ever been known to "sell out", we presume the danger is re note of any evil edicts arising front the lati tude allowed, while good reasons ex ist for not d -priving the elector of this technical legal right to vote for whom he pleases in the Electoral Col lege. In theroy the Electoral College chooses the President ; but in fact the people elect at the polls. The certificates transmitted to the Vice President are opened by the Pesident of the Senate in the presence of both houses of Congress on the 2d Wednesday of February, and the re sult declared. Montgomery's Protest. Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 21. The busiuess men of Montgomery met this af ternoon and passed resolutions protesting against the "unfair, untruthful and par tisan11 statements printed North iu refer ence to the Southern people. The reso lutions are conservative, moderate and dignified in tone. "This is a time," they say, "for peace and a belter love for the Union, and not for hate and sectionalism'. The Southern white people propose to protect the negro iu all his rights." Among other things the resolutions say : "Wm liWilr i. nt li.-ii-L- nt Annnmannr lint. forward to the great future that awaits our comunou uuioc. Bruce on Blaine. The Tattooed Man Sharply Criticised by the Colored Leader. Philadelphia, Nov. 23. Ex Senator Bruce, of Mississippi, was seen at his hotel. He was very frank in expressing his opinion regarding Mr. Blaine's attack upon the South. ''That speech of his at Augusta," said Senator Bruce, "will dou biles be the cause of great uneasiness and mental distress among the colored people of the South. Fortunately its effects can only be short-lived. Such utterances were only demagogical in the extreme and wholly tin warranted. I think I ought to know something a bout our people in the South. The greatest harmony exists between the white ami colored races. Blaine's charges of intimidation and violence at the polls are absolute and unquali fied falsehoods. "To-day the South is loyal and peaceful," continued Mr. Bruce. "Its people, while and black, are, or were until Mr. Blaine fomented this new antagonism, in the right frame of mind to enter upon harmonious relations with the people of the North. They were especially desirous that the pleas ant business relations should not be The Uncertainty of Selling a Hide, The Charlotte Observer says that it isn't often that a man brings an article to town to sell and actually has to pay the buyer for it, instead of the buyer paying the man, but just such a transaction as this happened yesterday. A darkey car rying a hide in a bag went to a dealer anil proposed to sell hi in the hide. It was a rather small looking piece of skin and furthermore was full of holes. The deal er proposed to buy the hide nt the regu lar market price and charge the darkey ten cents for eaeh hole in it. To this the darkey agreed and when the transaction was footed up, itjra found that the hide belonged to the merchant and the darkey owed him llo cents on it. He asked the privilege of recovering Ids bag from the financial wreck, and this being granted, he picked up the ba and departed rumi nating over the hopes and disappoint ments of a SchitT(t)less life. It is the sin of the nations and the curse of the Church that we have never properly appreciated the Bible as we ought. It is the Book of books, for the . priest and for the people, for the old and for the young. It should be the tenant of the academy as well as of the nursery, and ought to be incorporated in our course of education from the mother's knee to graduation in the highest universities in the land. Every thing is destined to fail unless the Bible be the fulcrum on which these levers revolve. Can such a book as the Bible be read without an influence that is com mensurate with its importance? As well might the flowers sleep when the spring winds is mellow horn to call them from their bed; as well might the mist linger upon the bosom of the lake. when the sun beckons it to leave its dewy home. The Bible plants our feet amid that angel group which stood with eager wing expectant when the Spirit of God first hovered over the abvs3 of chaos, and wraps us in praise for the new-born world, when the morning stars sang together for joy. The Bible builds for us the worRl when we were not. stretches our conceptions of the indefi nite beyond the last orbit of astronomy, pacifies the moral discord of earth, re organizes the dust of the sepulchre, and tells man heaven is his home and eterni ty his life time. Bishop Pierce. If a man was evolved as to his animal structure from the lower animals, then we should have this state of things; being with the form of a man, standing erect, with no hair on his body, with human hands, with the organs of speech, with a brain-case of about 85 cubic inche3 capacity (three times that of the gorilla). Now we cannot suppose this brain-case to be empty. The brain must have been there. And, therefore, the Reason the rational nature. So that it is preposterous to talk of man leing evolved as to his body to the exclusion of his mind. The brain-case is contriv ed for a rational principle. It is a house which had to have a tenant. And so we might go on of the whole structure of man it is all patterned for intellect ual life. What would man have done without a mind and with no natural cov ering to his body ? He could not have made clothes What would he have done against the wild beasts of the fields without weapons? It was his mind that protected him. What would have be come of his young, so long in matur ing? You cannot, therefore, separate the physical and the intellectual man They are parts of a whole,, and go in combination.
